Yes, after much looking around I think renting an SLR magic Anamorphot-CINE lens kit is the way to go at the moment. It's a bit too pricey to buy at $8K for a three-lens kit (for me, anyway). The other alternatives seem too fidgety for my style of shooting.

There is an obvious opportunity for Panasonic/Leica to step in here with one or more killer M43 anamorphic lenses for $1K-$1500. Hopefully that's why they are working so hard on a feature like this!
